Anaemia can cause fatigue, headaches, shortness of breath, dizziness, rapid heartbeat, and a number of other symptoms. There are several different types of anaemia, such as dietary deficiency anaemia, pernicious anaemia and megaloblastic anaemia. It can also be caused by other conditions such as pregnancy, certain medications, alcohol abuse and intestinal diseases.
If your diet lacks iron, protein and vitamins (especially B12), you have an increased risk for anaemia. An Anaemia Profile contains the following tests:
• Hgm with PS
• Vitamin B12 and Folate (Folic Acid)
• Iron
• Serum- CAB method
• TIBC
• Serum Ferritin
• Vitamin B12
• Stool R/M
• Stool Occult Blood
A CBC (Complete Blood Count) looks at important parameters of your blood including haemoglobin level, white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets. The Ferritin, Iron and Total Iron Binding Capacity tests work together to indicate if you have an iron deficiency, which is the most common form of anaemia. Finally, an anaemia profile will determine any Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid deficiency, often the reason for the onset of anaemia.
